As you all probably know by now, today is the 100th anniversary of Finnish independence - Finland separated from Russia in 1917 following the Russian Revolution. BCI has been celebrating Finland's Independence Day on our site today in honor of BC men’s hockey players Julius and Jesper Mattila and Aapeli Räsänen. We’ve taught you Finnish, ranked Finnish songs, and helped you pick a favorite Finnish hockey team. Also, Grant wrote...something that maybe makes sense?
